This monograph on the «Plant Cell Wall» is the third edition on this topic published in the series «Encyclopedia of Plant Anatomy». As far back as 1925 C. van Wisselingh wrote «Die Zellmembran» and 34 years later P. A. Roelofsen edited «The Plant Cell Wall». Both authors dealt with the current knowledge of their times on cell wall constituents and Roelofsen added the results of early electron microscopy. In this third revision emphasis is laid on biogenetic processes. Thus the extraplasmic ontogeny, growth and differentiation of this biological object are treated in the first part, followed by a second chapter on its biochemistry, and a third on biophysics of the cell wall. However, the recent biochemical work on cell wall constituents is so extensive that it can only be dealt with in a condensed form. In the biophysical chapter, some problems of wood technology are included. The studying of cell walls is an old and vast science. Ever since Hooke created the term cell based on the microscopic structure of cork tissue in 1667, papers on the wall of plant cells have been published. Thus 300 years' development has lead to a very complex science, especially since there are not only so many biological aspects, but also technical points of view. A revision of only the most recent research schemes would lead to an incoherent enumeration of current problems, and no credit would be given to the endeavors of previous cell wall researchers. Therefore, this monograph attempts to treat the cell wall as a whole. It is conceived in the sense as outlined by K. Linsbauer when he established his «Handbuch der Pflanzenanatomie». It is evident that the necessarily restricted size of the book does not allow the presenting of all desirable details. Only the general lines can be traced, for a special study of which an ample bibliography, as complete as possible, is presented. Of interest to every botanist, specialists in forestry, geographers, relevant research institutes, paleobotanists, institutes for applied botany, institutes for wood research, agricultural colleges, science libraries.
